Vanessa asked through the speaker.William exhaled sharply as he brushed his hand over his face, "Vanessa can you reschedule?" He asked calmly." No! No William, we cannot reschedule!

~Next day~William made his way upstairs to the bedroom and mistakenly barged into Catherine who was too busy admiring her reflection in the mirror to notice his presence. She stylishly struck poses while preparing for work, in a maroon coloured pantsuit, her luscious hair, waving on her back, she paired everything with a cute black birkin and black Louis Vuitton shoes she got as a wedding gift from her mother. She turned around to take her leave when she saw William leaning by the door frame with his hands folded at his chest and wearing a narrow grin on his face.She staggered at the sight of him, and wondered what he was starring at, looking so lost, "What are you doing?" She questioned, her heart racing with shock, she picked her phone from the bed and approached the door when William's hand stopped her."I was just too busy admiring you, I got lost in your beauty."Catherine cocked her brows and darted her eyes around the room before taking a full stare at him, " Out of my way Wi

When she realized that he noticed she was considering his words, she shook her head vigorously, sighed and made her way to the wardrobe.William successfully didn't get a response from her which was a real bummer for him but he was willing to give her all the time and space she needed to ponder over his proposal.

Catherine, I know ... I should have told you--"" Then why didn't you?! Oh my! William's I thought you never wanted this? We signed a goddamn contract, you're not following what the contract says."

Did you forget the way you looked at me and talked to me? Have you forgotten the wayyou addressed me in public? I didn't want to bring this up but what's with this fishy behavior lately?
